	Expressways are rural or urban arterial roadways with [[236.13 Designing Right of Way Plans#236.13.1.5.2 Controlled Access\|controlled access]]. They are intended to provide a high level of safety and efficiency in the movement of a significant volume of traffic at high speed. Control of access refers to the regulation of public access rights to and from properties abutting the roadway. With controlled access, preference is given to through traffic while ingress and egress to adjoining properties is only permitted at specific locations such as public roadways. This access is normally provided through the use of at-grade crossings. In certain situations, access to adjoining properties can be provided through the use of frontage or backage roads or by restricting movements to a specific entrance (i.e. right-in and right-out).
